Abstract

By the moment method for the Boltzmann equation with a collision term between particle and gas molecules, the normal shock wave structures are investigated without any assumptions on initial gas jump conditions, and on the particle drag and heat transfer coefficient. In the profiles for high gas Mach number, a sudden transition from frozen to relaxation region is found. For low Mach number and small particle size, such a transition disappears, and the shock wave is dispersed. The particle drag and heat transfer rate are calculated within the shock transition process. There are two types of transport of momentum and energy, i.e., the one is the Stokes type, and the other is not.
